Yeah I agree that warlocks suffer more from bugs than any other class but at least you got my point that paladins face the same frustrations, but it's not from bugs it's from the design of the class, though there are bugs that do hurt (judging crusader any rank will still only add 30 damage to a seal of command crit when it should be adding more for one)
I have no problem with crit kills of mounted foes if you get so lucky. But again you can still have some control on your DPS, and your problems aren't as severe in PvE where the paladins still persist in many cases in PvE and PvP.
That was all I was getting at. Since you know very well the pain of the warlock, the paladin feels very similar pain as well though from a different source. Just something that I wanted to make sure was getting across.
I do wish the would fix lock bugs and address many of their other issues as well.
Paladins are not gods and they are not completely gimped either. The real issue as several are trying to point out is they are so very very limited compared to other classes. Even the bugged warlock, as you said can "Yes, I can stack the deck, play it safe, and change my playstyle...". Paladins can't. There is one, and only one playstyle where they are effective. Though I will concede do to other issues with the game world (that Skan pointed out) that one and only one thing they can do well they are probaby too good at.

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
